First Road Trip

This past weekend, we took our first road trip to the valley. Natalie was an excellent car sleeper and woke up when we were one block from Patty & Jake's house! We had a short visit and then went to Visalia for a surprise birthday dinner for my mom. (the surprise went well!)





On Saturday we had lots of family and friends come by for a visit. Ryan entertained us with his dancing and played Ring Around The Rosies with Grammy. It's amazing how much he is changing - he has such an outgoing personality and never stops talking. At some point, unprovoked, he came over to Natalie and said "Hi Princess". No one is quite sure where he learned that one!



We took some family photos... 4 generations and Grammy & Papa with the grand kids.




At the end of the day, we were all exhausted. Papa & Natalie fell asleep in the chair and didn't even notice the flashing of the camera.

I LOVE a picture post! I'm going to borrow some of your pictures for myself, if you don't mind! We're glad everyone made it home for the surprise party - it was a fun weekend to catch up.
